First time Visiting the Grayson, love the outside dining area. One table had several birds eating the leftovers but kind of neat. We all have to eat.Pathway of rox\cks is so beautiful, all the umbrellas. It was hot outside otherwise we would have ate on the patio. 103 in San Antonio.Walked in the door to cool air and these beautiful chandeliers and bar.Took a little time to get seated, almost changed to eating outside but they finally found us a table in the back.Lemonade very pricey with an additional $1 for added flavor. Don't recommend the added flavor, not worth the extra cost.Menu Is also pricey but we were near the Pearl, maybe that's why the higher cost.Food was excellent no complaints.We ordered the meatballs as an appetizer and Mac and cheese and a grilled cheese for my grandson.Meatballs so delicious and fell apart.Mac and cheese...WOW! So creamy and delicious. We all had a bite but my grandson ate it up. He had string cheese hanging from his mouth. He loved it so much. The grilled cheese also went fast. He is almost 10 and has a huge appetite.The Grayson did not give small portions for the Mac and cheese, we were pleasantly surprised..My daughter and I split a Cuban sandwich with asparagus spheres. Delicious!!The sandwich came with a side of shoestring fries, they were just OK. The portion size was small.Sandwich was excellent and the asparagus was so zesty. Highly recommend.Order for 2 was pricy; that is my only complaint really and the creepy manager with the earbud.No Veterans discount either.Our servers was so nice, she kept coming back to check on us. Thanks Mia!Someone was standing watching everything in plain clothes and had a ear piece in, if he was a manager he should have come to the tables to see if our service was good or not. Smile a little bit too...too serious seriously.Restrooms so clean, love the paper towels. Pictures of dogs hanging on the walls were a nice touch. Someone took a lot of time to get all the details of every painting. Especially loved the Collie. Did not get any pics of the restroom but super clean.Pricing may stop us from coming back, paid over $60 for 2 meals.Thanks Mia for great service and to the guy watching with arms crossed...lighten up. Stand and watch where your not noticed by the customers.Oh one more thing...don't fall for the Rainwater! Bottled water? Too expensive for a glass bottle with a rainwater label. I purchased for my daughter but the glass jugs of free water is better.Waitress will validate your parking if you park in the Grayson lot, we did not see the signs so paid to park on the street.Parking: We paid to park in the street then found out later they will validate your parking inside. 3 hours will be validated, did not see any signs outside, found out from waitress.
